It's a wonderful way to begin a day with a beautifully written poem reminding us of all the beauty God has provided for our pleasure. It's a reminder of His great love for us. Thank you for starting my day with a smile.

Our summer is ending and your summer is coming. It's time to hope and dream of flowers blooming everywhere. I thought Australia doesn't have any winters. I love to come to Australia and New Zealand sometimes next year for a visit.

Well done and you are good at rhyming poetry.

Hi Roy,
Another perfect poem to match with chosen scripture. After enduring catastrophic flooding and repeated flood events in the last six months
verdant valleys, sunny days and flowers seem a perfect vision to me.
Well written and applied to scripture.
Blessings
Shirley

Roy-Boy,

Good morning! How nice to wake up to such a warm and encouraging post! *smile*

Those flushed fulsome fields and garrulous geese and fields flush with flowers make some beautiful images! God has given us SO MUCH! If we will only turn and pay attention to all the beauty - how can we ever feel alone or without help?

Thanks, friend!

You have penned a very calming poem here, to match your soothing illustration. I particularly liked the opening words:
I dream of hope, fulfilment pending,
where streams of grace fill wells of tending.
Excellent. Blessings, Kate xx

What a gorgeous description of Heaven! Thank you for penning this and I hope you will include this one in your book of poems to publish. We all need this reminder of that future land "Where truth and justice ever reign,
and time is banned."

One space needed here:
Bright summer days thatnever end, (that never)

Sweet poetic hymn of faith and the magnificence of heaven! Very fine rhymes...

Your final stanza just lifted my spirit!

Stanza three, first line-- I think "thatnever" morphed into one word...

(Happens to me all the time!)

Love your "f" alliteration...

Karenina
